ALT’s Framework for Ethical Learning Technology (FELT) is designed to support individuals, organisations and industry in the ethical use of learning technology across sectors. It forms part of ALT’s strategic aim to strengthen recognition and representation for Learning Technology professionals from all sectors.
We have now published ALT's written response submitted by Dr Maren Deepwell, chief executive, on behalf of the Association for Learning Technology, registered charity number 1160039.
Our response is focused on the case studies and input provided by ALT Members. Many of ALT’s Member Institutions have also submitted individual responses.

After the success of last year, we will once again hold the CMALT Award Ceremony at this year’s ALT Annual Conference 2019. The ceremony will celebrate Certified Members of ALT (CMALT holders) attending the conference who have achieved or renewed their CMALT accreditation in the last year.
Since 2017 Dr Thomas Cochrane of the Auckland University of Technology in New Zealand in partnership with ASCILITE has provided a free, open professional development opportunity in the cMOOC (connectivist massive open online course) around the CMALT accreditation framework: https://cmaltcmooc.wordpress.com/about/
In February we are launching two new pathways to accreditation:
Associate CMALT: aimed at early career professionals and those for whom learning technology is a smaller part of their role;
Senior CMALT: aimed at more experienced professionals and those whose role includes management/leadership or research focus.
ALT's Annual Survey is open for responses until 14 January 2019. The survey has now been run annually since 2014 and a number of questions around priority areas have remained unchanged providing an insight into how Learning Technology is used across sectors as well as identifying emerging trends in current a future practice.
The next Annual General Meeting will take place at 16.45 on 12 September 2018 at Manchester Place, the University of Manchester, UK during the ALT Annual Conference 2018. All Members are encouraged to attend the AGM and AGM passes can be arranged for anyone not attending the conference. If you are unable to attend in person please make full use of the proxy voting arrangements.
